Title inspired by a quote which I think fits fairly well with this piece: "We dance round in a ring and suppose, While the secret sits in the middle and knows." –Robert Frost

Dance Around, Only One Knows

People s p e c u l a t e about why

YOU

Like

Her

When you've nevereverever liked anyone before

(And certainly not someone of her

S t a t u s )

*(*)*

You say that it's because she's actually smart

And you think her stutter's c-c-cute

And you find her i n t r i g u i n g

And you like her ohso greeneyes

*(*)*

All those things are true

- B u t –

( There are other smart girls in the world )

[ And other girls who stutter ]

{ And more intriguing people, too }

*(*)*

So r e a l l y, it's just those eyes

-those sparklingjadeprecious eyes-

That make her ohso special

*(*)*

Except…

They don't.

('Cause she's not the only one who has them)

*(*)*

Who said it was her you liked

A n y w a y s ?

*(*)*

Yes, I did just go there.

You see, people said that Ian/Dan couldn't be done. People said that it was too sick for even me to do. So, of course, I had to take my friends up on this challenge. It was hard, I admit, but I think I did this pairing as best as it's possible to do it; sometimes, simple is best.

Please review with your honest opinions on the story- not just the pairing, but the entire piece. It'd mean a lot to me.

Thanks much,
